NOMOS GLASHÜTTE
Rudwig AOYAGI
This model is exclusive to the Japan market that combines Roman numeral indexes, railway minute tracks like railway rails, and leaf-shaped blue hands. The lineup will be available in two sizes: 33mm and 35mm.
The dial is enamel white, and the indexes and tracks are arranged in indigo. At the 5-minute position of the track, markers with the motif of a diamond, a traditional Japan pattern, are placed to enhance visibility and distinguishability.
In addition, the hands use classic leaf hands. The blue-baked finish ensures a clear contrast between the minute and hour hands. The curved needle shape is a composition that forms a neat expression while maintaining legibility as a dress watch.
